Sonnet 43. When most I wink, then do mine eyes best see

When most I wink, then do mine eyes best see

For all the day they view things unrespected;

But when I sleep, in dreams they look on thee

And darkly bright are bright in dark directed.

Then thou, whose shadow shadows doth make bright

How would thy shadow's form form happy show

To the clear day with thy much clearer light

When to unseeing eyes thy shade shines so!
